How to Handle Bees in Your Home: Smart Pest Control in Perth

Bees are miracle animals. They contribute to pollination and food production, as well as perform other established duties. But sometimes they move to your place, and it is not profitable at all. Perth, with its warm environment and plenty of native flora, is the best place to attract bees annually. People usually struggle with noisy and viscous tenants in the roof space or holes in cavity walls, or even in garden furniture.

Bees prefer dry, dark, and protected buildings to build their hives. Voids between the walls, corners of the attic, and sheds that are rarely used offer perfect conditions. A small opening, even a coin-sized hole, can attract a swarm of bees to a home. An even bigger cause of concern is the possibility of stinging. For certain people, this can be fatal. Children and pets are also especially vulnerable when it comes to stinging because beehives are familiar with them. Furthermore, hives pose a structural threat; as the hive grows, honey and wax can seep into the walls, attracting ants and growing mould. To prevent these issues, we recommend early detection. These are some of the most common symptoms:

• Constant buzzing in a specific area

• Bees flying in and out of a wall or roof vent

• Sticky spots on your walls from leaking honey

An unusual smell near the walls or the ceiling

If you determine that there indeed are bees on your property, do not try to remove them yourself. Professional bee removal in Perth is necessary.

Our pest control business employs both ethical and safe methods. Our goal is to relocate as many bees as we can whenever possible, especially those that have a major impact (native bee species and honeybees) on our environment. Our professionals come in geared with protective gear, temperature sensors to locate less visible hives, and safe extraction equipment(errors) for comb removal. Furthermore, we will then close off all possible entrance points to avoid re-entry.

If you’ve already dealt with a hive, you might wonder how to keep bees away for good. Prevention is key. Here are some simple steps:

• Seal all exterior cracks and holes

• Keep vents and chimneys covered with fine mesh

• Trim flowering plants near your home's entry points

• Regularly inspect sheds, eaves, and wall cavities
